TOP PICKS & SUGGESTED WAGERS I handicap the races and list Four Horses per race (plus another in case scratches) in order of preference starting with the Top Pick so multi-race and inter-race wagers can be formed. Currently, I am focused on BELMONT PARK & CHURCHILL DOWNS  providing my Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagering strategies. My selections for turf races are 2nd to none. I find value and Double Digit Top Pick Turf Winner as my specialty.. Spot Plays may also be included in the daily selections, weekends more probable. Tracks for potential Spot Plays include WOODBINE, SANTA ANITA PARK, LAUREL PARK, GULFSTREAM PARK, and DELAWARE PARK. I'll focus around turf races looking to cash nice tickets.

OK, A nice day on tap as I’ve completely handicapped all 10 Belmont races plus races 6-10 at KY Downs with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. Some very nice turf races today at both locations as I expect a day of upsets. The races at KY Downs are very difficult but my Best Bet of the Day is there anchors the PK5 & PK4 and will certainly produce a score for the ages if I’m correct. The Belmont races look just as likely for favorites going up in smoke so it will be an interesting day and hopefully very…

OK, After 2 Top Pick Winners both the last two days at KY Downs we shift my main focus back to NY as Belmont Park opens for the Fall Meet.

For Saturday I’ll have full card Belmont and will take a look at KY Downs for sure looking for good plays and I already know ‘I have one’ running. For Friday I completely handicapped all 9 Belmont races with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. With the wildly popular Pick5 wager being…

OK, For Thursday I’ve completely handicapped all 10 KY Downs races with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. The races are crazy, the camera angles are crazy, the paddock reporter even tries to give out scratched horses hours after the rest of the world knew they were out. Such was Day 1 at KY Downs. The inside was softer yesterday and outside paths firmer. The races are difficult for sure, but much like Saratoga, you only need one good race or sequence of races to make a score. Hoping I’ve found the key to success today. Visit Pick4win.com to purchase…

OK, Saratoga is done and we’re moving forward into the fall season. Cashing some real nice tickets in the last week made my meet successful. For Wednesday I’ve completely handicapped all 10 races at KY Downs with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. KY Downs is a quaint little track that runs five race days a year of all turf racing over a European style turf course. It’s exploded in popularity recently and is fun to play and exciting to watch. I have a few good opportunities including the PK5 so it will be a fun Wednesday. Belmont opens on…

OK, Closing Day is here, it will be quite lovely to get back to normal. This past week has been so rewarding and I’m hoping to continue that today. It rained all day yesterday but I fully expect some turf racing if not all of the scheduled ones. For Monday I’ve completely handicapped all 10 Saratoga races with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested with Off Turf selections for the non-stakes races. Regardless of the surfaces, it should be a fun day to play as I’ve got some interesting ones all day long from first time starters to turf horses…
